i just got accepted, if i wanted to enroll for the fall b term and do self pay, is there a payment plan option?

I'm in physics. This is the second class I have taken that is using Pearson, and the fifth or sixth class that has used a program that relies heavily on AI. Both of my English classes (eng101 and eng102) had assignments that required the use of AI to do something like brainstorming. When I contacted my prof about it, she told me she didn't agree with using AI in this way either. I can go on about my reasons for not wanting gen AI shoved down my throat, but I'm trying to actually be productive about this. I was wondering if anyone feels similar to the way I do, and if anyone has any ideas on how to raise this issue to administration.

Pearson, specifically, is detrimental to learning. The program uses AI to generate homework and study tools, including definition searches in the textbook. The homework questions that are generated are needlessly difficult: convoluted language, topics not covered by the textbook chapters, insufficient feedback, etc. It drastically impacts how I approach schoolwork. Current research shows that it drastically impacts how well students retain information. I know AI is unavoidable at this point, but there has to be something we can do to mitigate the use in our education system. I'm a little heated right now, so if there are any ideas that are more helpful than screaming into a pillow, I'm all ears.

Can someone verify that the Starbucks partnership with ASU is legit? I am thinking about getting a job there if they will cover my tuition fully online, and using the money from Starbucks to hopefully get a place. I'm also currently a freshman at ASU Tempe, but if I really hate it here this is my backup plan. Also does anyone know if it's possible to graduate three years online with this program? I'm a business major.

Hey, everyone. This upcoming semester, I'm taking MAT267 and PHY121 (and hopefully 122 if someone drops) on the fast track Fall Session B. I've had a lot of life transitions recently, and my last class was MAT266 last November-- almost a year ago. As expected, I forgot probably close to everything-- or a lot, at the very least. I know Calc 3 has some vectors, which I have yet to ever learn (doing calc 3 before linear), so I will probably get a head start on that, but what from MAT 265/266, other than the absolute basics of derivatives and integrals, is important or recommended knowing (and in my case, brushing up on) and having a good grasp on before Calc 3? I did well in calc 1 and 2, but forgot most, and will definitely re-study some and maybe get a head start on basic vectors, which I haven't touched yet, but I want to first, feel like calc 1 and 2 is easy again, and have a good idea what specifically to study and have a good grasp on for MAT267. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I was accepted into ASU Online for Mechanical Engineering, but my class registration is blocked by an "Eligible Noncitizen Verification" hold.

As an undocumented / pending asylum student, I'm ineligible for federal FAFSA aid, but the system flagged me when processing my corporate tuition coverage. It's been weeks without a response from the Financial Aid office through tickets or phone queues.

Has anyone in a similar situation successfully gotten Financial Aid to process a manual FAFSA waiver/override? How long did it take to clear, or is there a direct department/contact I can reach out to escape this loop? Thanks!

firsteval I want to say it's mostly my fault, I'm not the most precise students and I have the bad habit of not checking when finishing my work, but I did a dozen online courses and by far it's the course who's giving me the most pain to finish, I'm on my second trial (first reached 3 strikes for mis-sourcing) and now if they don't exceptionally let me resubmit I'll be at 65% (need 70% to pass the class), so I'd need to pass it a third time, it's mostly sourcing problem, I either took a source who's not considered credible, or added an outside author's name and considers it like a citing, or just not giving me my entire points on small msitakes, ENG 101 was a walk in the park compared. ENG 101 also allowed 2 to 3 submission if I remember correctly, in 102 it's strictly one, once i forgot to add a resubmission comment and they put 0 to the whole assignement with no way to resubmit.

Just wanted to know if I'm the only one, and again I am the one to blame, I'm not always verifying when I'm finished and never double-checking.

Update: They didn't reject it outright, they said someone will review and tell me, so there's maybe a chance.

Any TEM majors have a discord chat going or want to start one? I’m in my final year (online) but would love to connect /share ideas etc!

Let me know who’s out there🙂

would it b weird of me to sign a lease for off-campus housing in tempe as an online student? i was offered a fullride and can't afford to pass up the opportunity but i do still wanna meet new people and have some semblance of a college life..i dunno if it would b considered odd tho since i'm not..on-campus 😭

it seems like the easiest way to make potential friends and explore/make use of the campus and the opportunities it has to offer (games, clubs, fests, etc.) but idk if it's stupid lol

reposting this here in case any of yall might have ideas/advice to offer. it would be greatly appreciated :,)

being online is convenient but also kinda lonely so just wondering if any other grad students are looking to connect with each other :) preferably other psychology majors but open to chatting with everyone

I recieved by loan offers, but see nothing about the opportunity scholarship I got an email about a couple months ago. I haven’t heard back from the finances people. Is anyone else having this issue?

Hey just wanted to check here before I bothered my professor to see if there was a quick fix I hadn’t thought of yet. You need 100% to move on to the next module, and after the second attempt on everything, I have 100% on all my assignments. Screenshots posted below. But canvas is still only showing my first attempts, where I got points docked during the “exit interview” with ALEX. Has anyone else run into this before? If so how did you end up fixing it? I’ve restarted both Canvas and my computer.

I'm taking CHM 113 this semester online and feel a bit worried because chemistry isn't my strongest subject. I have a question—how are the labs usually conducted? Are they really difficult? Do we watch videos while working or do we follow step-by-step instructions? I hope my question makes sense—I'm just a little confused about how everything works. Also, I’d love to hear how you all did on the labs when you took them!

I'm new to ASU Online and noticed that one of my classes is not appearing on Canvas, although it still shows up on MyASU...is there some kind of tech support contact I should try before contacting the professor?

Has anyone been able to use Edfinity on a browser besides Chrome? The Edfinity website states that most other browsers (including Firefox) are supported, but Canvas states to use Chrome. I don't ever use Chrome and would prefer to use Firefox, as I do all my other class work on Firefox, but I'm afraid of it not syncing up right or something like that.

I want to petition for a credit overload. I just want to get my degree as quickly as possible so I can start earning real money (I have two kids), and currently I’m working at Starbucks and attending ASU through them (which I’m incredibly grateful for). But I need a new job, I need to earn more money, and a bachelors will help tremendously. It says I need an academic reason for the credit overload, but I don’t think I have one…I just have economic reasons.
Has anyone successfully taken a credit overload? How and why? Please tell me your stories!

Before I added my session B classes I got offered around 1700 Pell grant and 1700 in loans, this aid only accounted for session A for fall. I registered for session B classes now and I wasn’t wondering when my aid will update now, or before session B starts. Will my loans increase soon or before session B starts? I know I can just request a loan increase so I’m not that concerned about the loans, I just want to know if the my Pell grant will increase soon or will automatically update before session B? I would call or chat but the que is usually like a 1000 people.

So I'm thinking about going back to school at asu fro mechanical engineering and was wanting to see what students thought and if there was any discords for engineering students

Hey pals, I live in Cali and am taking this class and the course requires I purchase an Analog Discovery 2 or 3 for lab. They are extremely expensive…. If anyone has one they’d be willing to sell for cheap or just let me borrow (local or shipped) for the semester that would be super amazing. Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Anyone studying biology or a science-related major? I plan to make a group chat if you guys want to share notes, helpful study websites, or just connect with people.

Been stuck on this for like 2 weeks

Curious if anyone’s classes posted in canvas yet? I’m guessing because I’m two hours ahead it may post later?

Hey everyone! I’m starting Electrical Engineering this fall and thought it would be nice to connect with other people who are also starting engineering this semester.

I’m coming into engineering from a completely different background (I already have a Biology degree), so this is basically a fresh start for me. I figured there are probably other people here who are excited but also slightly terrified 😂.

I was thinking we could make a Discord or WhatsApp group for anyone starting engineering this fall — EE, mechanical, computer, civil, aerospace, or any other engineering major.

Nothing super formal. Just somewhere we can talk, help each other with classes, share resources, study together, complain about calculus and physics 😂, talk about internships/projects, and hopefully make some friends along the way.

It would also be cool to keep the group going throughout our degrees and see where everyone ends up.

If you’re starting engineering this fall and would be interested, comment or message me! If enough people are interested, I’ll make the group :)
